EXPECTATION FROM SUNDARBAN DAY TOUR :-
This trip has been christened "SHORT IN SUNDARBAN " due to the hectic nature of the tour, which starts at 5:30 a.m in the morning and ends around 20:30 - 21:00 hrs.
This tour would just give you a fair idea of the Sundarbans Mangrove forest and the Sundarban National park as we visit the three top attractions ,i.e. the watch towers of Sajnekhali, Sudhanyakhaliand, Dobanki.
